Volume 1 Rebirth - The Eve of High School Chapter 33 Zhou Yuan
In the pitch-black deep night, the largest song and dance hall in Yang City is filled with countless young men and women getting drunk and venting...
This is the most chaotic place in Yang City, where drug addiction, prostitution, and all sorts of shady transactions are performed. However, it still exists today, which shows that the boss here really has some skills.
"Head, those bastards from the East District Axe Gang have really gotten their hands on some heavy artillery this time! They've taken over many of our territories and hurt many of our brothers! Damn it, if they continue to develop, they'll definitely swallow up the West District! And the first ones to get wiped out will be us, the Black Tiger Gang!" A man with a scar above his left eyebrow, appearing to be in his thirties, with a bare upper body, well-developed muscles and ferocious tattoos, was truly a living embodiment of the underworld.
"Hmm." Across from the scar-faced man, a man referred to as "Head" had an ordinary appearance and looked to be in his thirties. His skin was dark, and he had long hair tied back in a ponytail, giving off an inexplicable aura.
He is the current leader of the largest gang in Yang City's West District, 'Black Tiger Gang', Zhou Yuan. Although it is said to be the largest gang, it is only because Yang City currently does not have a well-established underworld organization. They, like the Axe Head Gang, make a living by providing security services and collecting protection fees to maintain their gang's expenses. In their daily lives, they are mostly involved in small-time brawls, at most using knives to slash people, and then spending money to find connections to settle the matter. This was very common in the 1990s, when gangs were rampant everywhere, but few had become well-established underworld organizations. Furthermore, corrupt officials who accepted bribes became the protective umbrella for these black societies, making them even more unscrupulous. This situation continued until after the year 2000, when the country began to heavily crack down on underworld organizations and corrupt officials.
It's just that ammunition is something that can't be accessed without some connections.
Zhou Yuan hesitated for a moment before asking, "Xiao Wu, which route did you find?"
"It's the Vietnamese gang on the Vietnamese border, and what they gave them wasn't anything good either! All were 300-yuan four-five handguns, but we couldn't communicate with the Vietnamese gang..." Little Wu said, scratching his smooth head in frustration.
Before Zhou Yuan could speak, Xiao Wu continued, "Damn it, the Axe Gang's connections are stronger than ours! Their network is wider than ours! What's the reason? Isn't it because their money is thicker than ours?! We're all poor brothers who retired from the army and were brought here by Brother Yuan to start a new life. Because we had no connections, no jobs, we fought hard to build this gang. Are we going to give away what we've worked so hard for now?"
Zhou Yuan's brow was also furrowed, his teeth clenched in frustration at his own incompetence. He had failed to bring prosperity to his brothers, and if they were annexed in the future, it would be a different story. But the grudges between them ran too deep, to the point where they were like fire and water, unable to coexist. If things came to a head, and the other side sought to wipe them out or crush them utterly, would his several hundred brothers still have a way out?
Halfway through, he made up his mind and said to Xiao Wu, "These two days, I will announce the disbandment of our gang to the brothers. Everyone will have to fend for themselves! We'll divide the remaining money among the brothers. Even if we go back home to farm, it's better than waiting to be killed. It's my fault, Yuan Ge, that I couldn't lead you all to wealth and prosperity." In fact, he had long expected this outcome. After all, they only had brute strength, but in this realistic society, wanting to stand out was just one word... difficult!
"Brother Yuan! Can't..."
The words had barely been spoken when they were interrupted by a soft sigh. "Look at you, also a man of honor, military supplies and cash are no big deal, how about it? Are you willing to switch to my side?"
The two of them looked towards the entrance of the alley, and in the darkness, they vaguely saw a slender figure standing there quietly.
"Who?" Zhou Yuan furrowed his brow and asked.
Me!
"What can you give us?"
"That wish of yours that makes your brothers rich and prosperous, I think... I can help you achieve it." The woman said with a light smile, she was still standing there calmly, but the words she spoke were worth thousands of gold to Zhou Yuan!
"What makes you think I believe you?" Zhou Yuan's eyes flickered, somewhat moved. If it were really possible to not disband and find a good way out for the brothers, why not? But could this young woman really do it? And what made him believe her anyway?
